When is/was the bday? Did he/she at least apologize or acknowledge the delay? If so, I would tell them “no problem, maybe we can do something next year.” If not, I would say that “thanks for the reply but the child’s bday has passed.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I fired off a reply right away it would probably be a little nasty, but if I gave myself time to cool off a bit I would just let it go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You reply with something generic thanking them for their response. Especially if it was within the requested RSVP timeline. We parents all know time gets away from us and we forget things like RSVPs, if not more important things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North Balti Zen Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 It's fun how each digital run yielding "it's different" observations always ends with "but still manages to miss us" follow-ups... Soon we will have the "if you just change this feature and this feature and this feature we would be close" postings... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MillvilleWx Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 Wife and I had an amazing experience at Disney over the past week. It was seriously one of the best vacations ever. Sucks to return and see the pattern is still stuck in a rut. Here’s a picture of me having a little too much fun at my wife’s expense to brighten your day . 6 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
